Atlas Augments

[(PSN)supersocc11]

Does anyone else think that atlas's augments are underwhelming? I was really hoping for an interesting landslide augment but I'm definitely disappointed. Your thoughts?

The petrify one looks good.

Just a loot mechanic that doesn't seem cool at all. My opinion of course

My favorite is the one for Tectonics.

Really hope the Strength mod affects how many walls you can place.

The augment text mentions 3 walls(and so did Reb during the demonstration), so I doubt it.

I feel the same way. Not to mention that you have to petrify folks to begin with XD, which has it's own hurdles.

This game is in severe need of threat management other than hard cc.  It's not much, but the pet generating threat has got me really interested.  The walls look pretty tactically useful too.  As for farmframe, meh, w/e.  It'll probably come in handy.

cant believe they actually went with that.

Sure, it was voted in but come on.

 

He is a brawler! Add more brawler things!

 

Here's a quick one, if you melee kill them while in stone there's a small AOE rock explosion.

 

Why does all direct damage have to come from the first ability?

The stream already showed that the new rumbler is mega slow and basically just stays in one place. So this is rock effigy which limits what it does based on where it's launched.

can't say for sure, but the petrify augment is quite not satisfying despite stoned enemies have higher chances to drop loot. It can be tweaked in a way that petrify becomes immediate stoning, and that loots can be dropped even faster.

I can't see myself dropping any mods for those augments to be honest. But I do play him like One Punch Man, just spam land slide and murder everything.

[Austerie]

Have you seen a medusa speced Altas? Great team cc and a fairly long range on it to. Couple that with the Huras Kubrow and you are invis for days. I think the petrify augment will do well.

[chamelboom]

If they really have to make rumbler be one, it should be tiny, evil, tiny and very evil, to be clear, very fast in attacks(x3 of now possible) and movement (x2) and rock throwing a lot(x4) and maybe bodies of killed. Will be a little earth demon :)

 

Edit: And also radioactive, proc 100%

Well, there's noway to know if it's actually slow. They had to fit in all augment mods afterall. They probably haven't specced him for range.

Na, i was very happy with them. You could say i think they .... rock ;)

The big Rumbler was kind of meh, I was imagining something like every time they kill something they receive a duration and damage boost( Lime Upshot Robot from Gaige in Bl2) or 3 instead of one.

The Rest/Rage one sounds good but I couln't see it working really on the Stream, maybe because to many mods removed for the new augments..

The 1 one looks awesome, just wondering if the clone can use powers too.

I didn't knew about that ...Where are they? When? Info, link, something....?

Last devstream number 67, around 30 mimutes Rebeca show the mods in action.
